Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda

My son asked for this for his birthday. I was reluctant because he has a Nintendo Switch and few other hand-held video games that are much more modern/advanced. I figured Zelda would be too simplistic for his 21st Century tastes. Nope. Apparently Zelda is still just awesome. He has spent hours and hours playing, still hasnt won, and excitedly tells me about his advances, new instruments/items hes found, etc. Worth every cent I paid to see him so engrossed.

My brother grew up playing this game and absolutely loves this! Just reminding him of his childhood!

Puts all the original games in one handheld console. The screen is small, but not difficult to see due to the 16-bit pixelation. Made during a time when graphics took a step behind gameplay. Has wonderful save slots so you dont lose your place. If youre a fan of the Zelda series then I highly recommend this for the diehard gamer.

I loved playing the original Link’s Awakening on this system. It’s a little pricey but worth it. The clock feature and the first three Zelda games I can’t get on the Nintendo DS store make it a perfect gift for fans. The system sturdy but the cardboard stand it came with is cheap. I got one for myself and my nerdy brother.

Loved the idea that my Grandson could have some fun playing in the car trip to see me and back home. Bummer that it quickly broke before he could get to even the first level. Would have loved sturdy buttons that did not break.

For the price, this is the best purchase I made! I love Zelda and this little guy allows me to play anywhere!! Not slow, great graphics, exactly like the original game. I’m obsessed

Not worth it unless you are the fan boy. It seems cheaply produced compared to the old ones. Im afraid to let my kids even use it.

Besides the nice packaging I first noticed the weight of the product. Very light. Fits in pocket. Plenty of games. 4 total. Responsive buttons. Plays and sounds just like the originals (because they are). I opened this one but I plan on buying the Mario edition and keeping that one in the original packaging.

Bought for my kids on an airplane ride. When it arrived I thought, whoa, it’s so tiny! But the graphics are such high quality that it doesn’t matter (easy to see) and the small size is a bonus for travel. Same game I played as a kid. I’m going to get the Mario one for travel.

This was a little expensive, but well worth the cost in return for the joy it brings my nephew. And I remember all these games, so some day maybe we can both talk about them.
